Rob <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #23 from Rob <[email protected]> --- Since a few days I'm extensively working with kate or kwrite (internal krusader editor). Today I obeyed silent update of the editor window contents when the file being edited is changed from outside (e.g. git operation). Since I - with a long 'career' of using these editors - was highly alarmed about this loss of work (not really, I could retrieve it again), I investigated. Long story short: It seems that the behaviour has simply become unreliable. Sometimes the editor window is silently updated, sometimes not. Probably related to OS flavor. The problems occur on a debian bullseye based distro (MX Linux). The expected behaviour has never been a problem using Linux Mint 20.4 (and before). This one is based on Ubuntu focal. Because I know about correct operation on Mint 20.4, I decided to download two .deb files from the ubuntu focal repository: - kate5-data_19.12.3-0ubuntu1_all.deb - kate_19.12.3-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb I was a bit surprised that no dependency problems occurred. The silent editor window update is occurring here as well. Finally I restored the original condition. I now also rememered that upon an editing session last week, no problems occurred (no silent updates). Somehow curious... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
